Quirky Fridays

Helping Out A Flipper Friend!

August 8, 2014 By Kimberly A. Cook Leave a Comment

With the crazy weather in the Pacific Ocean and the Hawaiian Islands trying to dodge two big storms, its good to remember to help our wildlife neighbors too. This clip of a sea turtle rescue last month shows the big guy saying thank you in the most kindly way. Or else he was tired and needed help until he got more air. I’m going with the big thank you from Tom Turtle.

Happy Quirky Friday and have a great weekend!

How Do You Keep Cool In August?

August 1, 2014 By Kimberly A. Cook Leave a Comment

by Kimberly A. Cook            (Twitter@ WarriorTales)

This has been one wacky and weird weather year around the globe. While folks are dealing with all kinds of storm challenges, we are in the middle of a two-week heat wave that was supposed to be only one week-long. Obviously we have an overachieving weather pattern.

Since us Oregonians freak when the big round sun thing comes out and really freak when the humidity thing shows up, it’s a good bet everybody is inside; except for the young folks floating the rivers. So this is how our Oregon Zoo animals are keeping cool. Happy Quirky Friday everybody!

Happy Birthday Beatrix Potter!

July 25, 2014 By Kimberly A. Cook Leave a Comment

In honor of Beatrix Potter’s birthday on Monday, July 28th, I thought it only fitting to highlight a talented rabbit. Her little bunny book “Peter Rabbit,” as she called it, made it possible for her to save hundreds of acres of English land for the National Trust. One impressive bunny accomplishment!

I own a copy in French, “Pierre Lapin,” which sits on my desk.

Check out how talented this little bunny is getting his treats. Have a great weekend and Happy Quirky Friday!

Do You Have A Horse Goat Sitter?

July 18, 2014 By Kimberly A. Cook Leave a Comment

by Kimberly A. Cook         (Twitter@ WarriorTales)

My friends have the most fun hobbies; up to and including raising a baby goat. When I saw this video it reminded me of baby goat ‘Star,” who loves his bottle and to crawl up into my friend’s lap afterwards for a snuggle. (He does not burp afterwards, he farts.) Star’s snuggle has become more of a challenge these days since he is a bigger boy, but he insists on his lap cuddle. I need to warn her about raising bison.

These young goats have found the same kind of fun guy in this babysitter who lets them play King of the Horse with much patience. Have a Happy Quirky Friday!

It’s Time For Summer Polar Bear Pool Fun!

July 11, 2014 By Kimberly A. Cook Leave a Comment

by Kimberly A. Cook                     (Twitter@ WarriorTales)

Seems we are heading for a week of record temperatures here in Oregon and our duck web feet don’t take kindly to temps above 82 degrees.  But the polar bears at the Oregon Zoo will have their own cool pool to play in to keep cold. Maybe we should all get a kiddie pool, red plastic ball and dive in!

Happy Quirky Friday!
